About this listen
Dive into Exodus Chapter 5 with Pastor Ben Hays (West U Baptist) to explore the four hard spiritual truths about obedience and opposition. Why does following God often lead to immediate resistance, and why does victory rarely come quickly?
Ben Hays unpacks the story of Moses and Pharaoh, showing us that things often get worse before God brings a magnificent comeback. Learn how God uses opposition to refine our faith, display His power, and set the stage for His ultimate glory. If you feel discouraged and second-guessing your calling, this message will equip you to persevere and "Don't Give Up!"
Sermon Notes & Key Truths:
1. Victory is rarely immediate.
2. Obedience often brings opposition.
3. Things often get worse before they get better.
4. Hardships often cause us to second-guess our calling.
